A busy night, we were asked to come back in 15 minutes as they weren’t ready at their opening time. We were seated in the back and while waiting for our food, a Street vendor approached us and wanted money for a bracelet. We were trapped and gave him $2 to leave us alone. Why was this allowed in a nice restaurant? The food was good, as was the wine.

The food was absolutely amazing! There was a mix up on our pasta dishes but they immediately remedied the situation. The zucchini starter with stratciatelli cheese was my favorite antipasto ever.

A drink order was never delivered even after a second inquiry and one food order was inedible.

I had booked a table at least a couple of weeks in advance but when we arrived, we were given a table at the back of the restaurant. It was obvious that no one had checked the bookings for the evening. It was only when I asserted myself, were we given a better table . I suspect that all of the best tables were given to walk in diners which isn’t great when I had taken the time and effort to research the restaurant and give them the courtesy of making a reservation. I appreciate that the restaurant was busy but in addition to this, the welcome was underwhelming to say the least. Sadly, there was no apology for the oversight and this clouded the remainder of the evening.

Overall the restaurant is nice and the food is good. There is a problem with the service. You wait for 50 minutes or more to get your food. The waiters are chaotic, food comes out of the kitchen without any order. It is totally unprofessional to serve only to one person on the table.

Lovely place out of the direct sun for a lunch today. All was good - certainly as regards food and service - both excellent. There was some interference with the restaurant staff on a phone call without using headphones and the speaker through the phone was rather loud and disruptive - much more than the two women on our end. It was for five or so minutes so bearable ;)

When we first arrived at the restaurant for our 7.30 reservation the staff weren’t ready to open so we went elsewhere for a drink. Once we returned the restaurant filled quickly and the food was superb. Our waiter, Davide, deserves a special mention as his service and advice on local wine was exceptional.

The food was great, as was the ambiance. We had a wide variety of food in my family of 4: fish, horse meat pasta and a few others. Would definitely go back and eat here again.
